The company is presenting biorefinery samples and business plans at BioJapan 2026, an event running from October 7 through October 9, according to Daio Paper on October 7, 2026.

BioJapan highlights new materials

Daio Paper is displaying samples made through its biorefinery work and explaining its manufacturing technology and business plans at the NEDO booth. The company says the project uses wood pulp, wastepaper and paper sludge from the paper industry to develop biofuels and chemical feedstocks.

The work is being advanced with Green Earth Institute under a NEDO biomanufacturing project, linking Daio Paper's established paper operations with resource recycling and bio-based materials. The event date gives investors a concrete timetable for the company's technology showcase, while the JPY 930 quote provides the market checkpoint for October 8.

Guidance sets a JPY 680 billion target

Daio Paper's latest guidance covers the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027. According to JPX Market Explorer on August 11, 2026, the company expects net sales of JPY 680.0 billion, operating profit of JPY 24.0 billion, profit attributable to owners of the parent of JPY 12.0 billion and basic earnings per share of JPY 77.81.

For the first half of the same fiscal year, the guidance calls for JPY 327.5 billion in sales, JPY 4.5 billion in operating profit, JPY 5.0 billion in attributable profit and basic earnings per share of JPY 32.42. The operating profit target for the first half equals 18.8 percent of the full-year guidance, putting greater weight on the second half of the fiscal plan.

Stock stays below its yearly high

Daio Paper stock's JPY 930 price is JPY 314 below its 52-week high of JPY 1,244 and 25.2 percent below that level. The 52-week low is JPY 813, so the current price stands JPY 117 above the lower end of the range.

The company combines paper and paperboard with home and personal care products, including tissue and absorbent goods. That mix makes the BioJapan presentation relevant as a longer-term technology and resource-efficiency theme, while the fiscal 2027 guidance remains the clearest quantified operating yardstick.
